Rate Limits

Unfortunately we have to enforce rate limits on data.sparkfun.com in order to prevent service outages.
Most users won’t hit the rate limit during normal use, but it is something you should be aware of if your device needs to send a lot of logging requests in a short
period of time.

15 Minute Windows

Limits are divided into 15 minute intervals on data.sparkfun.com. You are currently
limited to making 100 log requests every 15 minutes. You can make those requests in bursts, or spread them out over the entire window.

HTTP Headers and Response Codes

The server will respond with HTTP rate limit headers for every logging request you make. These HTTP headers are contextual,
so they only indicate the rate limit for the current stream. You will have separate rate limits for each stream you create on
data.sparkfun.com.

X-Rate-Limit-Limit - The rate limit ceiling for that given request

X-Rate-Limit-Remaining - The number of requests left for the 15 minute window
